You’d be hard pressed to find a more popular pair in Donald than the Howleys.
With an open invitation, the Anderson Blue Room was filled to the brim on Sunday, September 6, as well-wishers travelled from all over Australia to help the couple celebrate.

• The Howleys with their extended family at the 90th birthday celebrations.


Married in 1958, apprentice carpenter John and his wife Maureen went on to have four children, Colleen, Rhonda, Darren and Gavin, and a loving and ever-growing extended family.


Guests enjoyed the catering from Donald’s P&A Society and spent the afternoon catching up with old school mates, relatives and friends.


The afternoon was filled with plenty of catching up, laughter and stories, with many reluctant to call it a day.


And really, for two such popular people, what better way to celebrate their lives together?
